OPERATIONS & MAINTENANCE

• Facilities operations and maintenance encompasses all

that broad spectrum of services required to assure the

built environment will perform the functions for which a

facility was designed and constructed.

• Operations and maintenance typically includes the day-

to-day activities necessary for the building and its

systems and equipment to perform their intended

function.

• Operations and maintenance are combined into the

common term O&M because a facility cannot operate at

peak efficiency without being maintained; therefore the

two are discussed as one.

To procure a technical author who is responsible to ensure all Building permits and approvals, As-built

drawings, Testing and Commissioning, Fire and Life Safety Plan and Certificates are collected, verified,

indexed and signed off.
